  • I shall be honest, I have not read the manga or watched the OVA series of Kyo no Gononi (Also known as Today in Class 5-2 and Kyo no 5 no 2), so I am unable to comment on the differences between this and the other forms of this series except from what I have read and a few images I have seen. I really liked this anime, bringing the anime genre that Azumanga Daioh departed with and has not been seen since. I have always liked the style where they split the episode up into several segments.

  • To Aru Majutsu no Index – Episode 1

    Opening Theme: PSI-missing by Mami Kawada - For the style of anime this is, I was not really expecting an opening theme this good, however it was a really nice surprise to see it how it turned out. From everything I have watched so far this season, this is definately the best opening sequence. First of all, I loved the suspenseful tune of the music, wasn't classical, wasn't happy just suspenseful. (Cannot really describe it in any other way) The animation was also very good!

  • Macademi Wasshoi! – Episode 1

    I was very skeptical about this series after dealing with a show like Kyouran Kazoku Nikki, which ended up rather funny in the first episode or two however managed to lose my interest afterwards. Whilst I still have that thought in the back of my mind watching this series, I do feel more optimistic with this series than Kyouran Kazoku Nikki. This is simply due to the fact that it does not try and focus on being completely random, and has a structured storyline, instead of just each episode being different.

  • Kemeko Deluxe! – Episode 1

    I was really cautious about this anime as I could either see it doing very well however on the other hand, it would do very poorly. In my honest opinion, it was above average at best however does have the potential to do much better depending on how the next few episodes go. First off, the graphics were a bit all over the place in ratings, on one hand, I found that the backdrops where very well done alongside a number of the character designs however, some of the other characters, especially the Kemeko robot design was a bit sub-par, althrough I assume that was the look they were going for.

  • Rosario + Vampire CAPU2 – Episode 1

  • Finally, I have reached a point in the game where I am happy enough to start reviewing the game. First of all, I would like to say that this game is absolutely brilliant, outdoing every other game that Nippon Ichi has done over the last few years. They have taken what was great about the series, and then adding and improving it many features that have improved the overall quality.

  • The graphics in this game are absolutely stunning, whilst most online games can get a dated look after a year or two, Granado Espada remains the same, high level quality as it did when it was released several years before an english release, and has not aged much at all. The 3D landscaping of the areas ingame are all very high quality, with every nook and cranny being well detailed and is consistent throughout all the areas, whether it be a deep dark torturous prison to a blistering cold snowfield. The character designs are also very well done, whilst originally there is only a few character designs, it soon expands over numerous different characters, each with a different clothes design. Everything else is done very well, making it some of the best game graphics I have seen. (Also on the plus side... it doesnt explode my compute). Also, the graphics are not overboard and do not stray from the Baroque Period theme that the game is set in.
